Abstract: Waste to energy(WtE) plants have significant carbon emission reduction benefits, combined with cogeneration was expected to better help achieve the goal of carbon peak. A WtE plant was taken as an example, focused on the impact of cogeneration on the carbon emission reduction effect of the incinerator. The results showed that the carbon emission reduction per ton of waste without heating was 0.15 tCO2e compared with landfill disposal. If external heating was 20 t/h steam, the carbon emission reduction per ton of waste was 0.17 tCO2e. It showed that the carbon emission reduction benefit of cogeneration in the WtE plant was more obvious.

Key words:  waste incineration, cogeneration, carbon emission reduction
